Default Application Letter

Hi, could you check my letter? Thanks

Dear Anne and Dave Prendergast,

I知 writing with regard to your advertisement for working on HOLIDAY FARM and practice my English.
I am not a native English speaker, even though I have been studying it for ten years at school and I need to practice my speaking, so I hope this will be the chance to do it.
I知 18 years old and I attend High School Specialising in classical subjects. I usually work every summer and I got used to hard work: two years ago I worked for three months as waiter in a restaurant and last year as a shopping assistant.
I would like to know a piece of information about the job. I would prefer to choose the working hours, is it possible? How much is the pay? Is the work really hard?
I hope the accommodation is good but you did not write on the advertisement if it is a single or double room.
Furthermore I am interested in knowing if the lessons are private or no, and if the teacher is an English native speaker.

Yours Sincerely

Luca

I need to know a couple of things about the job. I would prefer to choose the working hours. Is that possible? How much is the pay? Is the work really hard?
